injector issue, few questions please..

[bernB5]

I'm running 630cc siemens from usrt.. They are tightened all the way down and seem to fit in alright. I'm not running a spacer/washer or anything like that but the injectors themselves are loose. If i tug on the harness or just just grab the injector I can turn it, it rotates both in the intake manifold and the fuel rail. All of them do this and I checked, they're all pushed fully into the rail and mani.

Are you guys running spacers or anything, or do your injectors do this as well?
I assume that if I can rotate them by hand with ease, this will be a boost leak for sure as well as adding to my fueling issues.

Any suggestions?

i dunno man, i think we're even. I've replaced about as much as you have. every time i buy a new part i regret it lol

anyway, just put longer bolts in, they are fully tightened. I can turn the injectors easily without the harness on. I'm using the square retaining clips on the rail to hold the injectors and I can't just pull them out, so I think they're in the right spot. I'm out of ideas. I guess I'll take the rail off and see if i can push the injectors up any higher.

on another note. I need to seal my inlet where i cut the hole for the dv. There's deinitely a leak there so that'll throw my maf readings off which is probably adding to my 10:1 idle. And hopefully the new primary o2 will come in today, after all that, if it still runs insanely rich then I guess I'll call Crhis Tapp.. grrrrrrr
